Size up!
I loved this dress for the material and uniqueness and the style and length was perfect for a February wedding . I knocked off one star only because of how small it runs . I sized up per reviews but still was squeezing into this dress. I would definitely rent again but next time would go up 2 sizes.
Navy Lace Bib Dress

Size Worn: 10R
Usual Size: 8
Height: 5' 8"

Comfortable and Sexy
This dress was very comfortable with its stretch, and definitely was a flattering fit but I opted to wear a backup dress to my event because of the deep open back, which showed a little too much, especially for February wedding.

Loved this dress
This was the perfect little dress for a desert vacation. Great for day or night! May rent again for an upcoming beach vacation.
Leaf Ruffle Slip Dress

Size Worn: 10
Usual Size: 8
Height: 5' 8"

Perfect summer romper if sized right
This was a very comfortable romper but I wish I would have had a backless bra or rented a smaller size. I went large because rompers often don't fit me well in the torso, but the low cut front hung just a little too low and a tighter fit would have been more flattering on me. Also beware of tan lines.
Toledo Jumpsuit
Cleobella
Size Worn: LR
Usual Size: 8
Height: 5' 8"

Beautiful lace details!
This was a beautiful dress but but I recommend sizing up. I rented my normal size in this but it was too snug in the wrong places with see through midsection. Would have love to wear if larger size was available for my event. May try renting again.

Sheer Side Lace Dress
ML Monique Lhuillier
Size Worn: None
Usual Size: 10
Height: 5' 8"
Bust: 38B
Beautiful, comfortable, and elegant all wrapped into one.
This dress was extremely comfortable and the color was just as stunning in person as it is in pictures. The top had a tendency to slide down, so I did have to use tape to keep it up, but otherwise it was the perfect dress for an evening wedding.

Absolutely Stunning
The dress was beautiful and I received many compliments, however it was too short to wear heels, even in a long. Also, there is plastic lining that pokes in the chest area making a bra necessary. Otherwise, a beautiful and comfortable dress.

Size Worn: 4L
Usual Size: 10

Incredibly confortable and very flattering
I wore this dress for my boyfriends graduation open house and it was perfect. The material is so soft and easy to move around in. My only complaint would be that the gray showed through in a weird way around the bust, but otherwise it was an excellent dress.

Under The Spotlight Dress
Cut 25
Size Worn: S
Usual Size: 10
Height: 5' 8"
Bust: 38B
Stunning and sexy, while also versatile. You can dress it up or down as needed.
This dress is stunning from the front, but the back tucked over in an odd way. I wore this for a water polo banquet and I was originally worried that it would be too dressy, but it ended up being perfect and I dressed it down with wedges instead of heels.

Perfect compliment to my rented gold Badgley Mischka gown.
These matched perfectly to both the gold and red dresses I rented for Homecoming weekend festivities. Comfortable, not too heavy and they would look great with hair up or down.

Loved the color and the simple lines with a classic, elegant feel. Very Hollywood!
The dress was very form fitting and stunning, but the length was a real problem. I was worried about this after reading other reviews but measured the 59" length from shoulder to hem and thought it would still work. I think this dress would have been absolutely amazing if the length was longer for taller girls. A larger size may have been helpful as it wouldn't have hugged the body so close making it even shorter. Overall, though, the dress is a beautiful color and I loved how it looked minus the short length.

Cherry Square Neck Gown
Nicole Miller
Size Worn: 4L
Usual Size: 10
Height: 5' 8"
Bust: 38B
This was worn for Homecoming Queens Court. The dress had a great sparkle and feeling of royalty.
Usually a size 4, the RTR stylist suggested a back-up size of a 2L, which is what I ended up wearing. The smaller size was more form fitting and flattering. I feel pictures don't do this dress justice, it is much more beautiful in person. I received tons of compliments! As far as comfort, it was a little itchy under the arms and I had to adjust the top a few times, but that's pretty typical for me with strapless dresses.
